通过分块变换提升对抗样本跨模型迁移能力

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are highly vulnerable to adversarial examples, which pose significant challenges in security-sensitive applications. Among various adversarial attack strategies, input transformation-based attacks have demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in enhancing adversarial transferability. However, existing methods still perform poorly across different architectures, even though they have achieved promising results within the same architecture. This limitation arises because, while models of the same architecture may focus on different regions of the object, the variation is even more pronounced across different architectures. Unfortunately, current approaches fail to effectively guide models to attend to these diverse regions. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel input transformation-based attack method, termed Component-Wise Transformation (CWT). CWT applies interpolation and selective rotation to individual image blocks, ensuring that each transformed image highlights different target regions, thereby improving the transferability of adversarial examples. Extensive experiments on the standard ImageNet dataset show that CWT consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both attack success rates and stability across CNN- and Transformer-based models.
